we're ready for christmas

i finished all my shopping and put the packages in the mail yesterday (100 bucks, thank you very much). our tree is up and most of the christmas cards have been mailed. soon we'll be setting sail to colder climates to celebrate with family. woot woot!

when we were home in nj for thanksgiving my (just turned) 8 year old niece made us a beautiful picture of a fireplace with stockings hung with care. so we added that to our cozy, christmas living room scene.

We would be very grateful if you could bring to your readers' attention the December issue of our journal of Catholic thought and study in the fields of liturgy (Summorum Pontificum), biography, history, music, culture and heritage:

"The people and the Government of the United Republic are aiming to build a just society of free and equal citizens, who live in healthy conditions, who control their own destiny, and who co-operate together and with other people in a spirit of human brotherhood for mutual benefit. This is the goal."
-Mwalimu Julius Nyerere, first president of the United Republic of Tanzania
